Abandoned Town – Novi Cidade de Kilamba (or Kilamba New City), near Luanda, Angola. The city was designed to house up to 500,000 people when complete, and built by the state-owned China International Trustand Investment Corporation few years ago. It has 750 colorful eight-story apartment blocks, a dozen schools, shopping malls with cinema, a five-star hotel and more than 100 retail units. Only 220 apartments had been sold from the first 2800 until July 2015 but now the city is abandoned.

Abandoned Theater – Loew’s King’s Theater, New York. It had been abandoned but is apparently being renovated. Located at 1025-1035 Flatbush Avenue, the space is the largest indoor theater in Brooklyn, the third largest theater in New York City, and will be the centerpiece of a revitalized Flatbush.

It has already been renovated. They have comedy shows, music acts, art festivals, etc there now. Across the street is a great Mexican joint, Los tres Chiflados, if you are in the area.

Yeah, in the article I had gotten the photos from they mentioned the renovation. I don't get down that way often, but I made a note in my "recommended restaurants" for Los tres Chiflados. I love Mexican food!
